Let's try from a different angle: which functionalities of Notepad have been lost?

Well I'm not on Windows anymore so I can't test it out. Does it still have the option to only show text raw and uninterpeted? I absolutely would not want it to, like, show bold instead of **bold**

I wouldn't want it to do anything other than show the literal text, and anything in that direction is a loss via added friction.

  1. You have to manually switch the display mode from raw to formatted for the formatting to show.
  2. It only works for saved .md files.
